Hi!
I just bought a (ONTEC) USBC hub to connect my VGA monitor to my laptop) with as well a PD port. Reading the poorly written manual I wasn't sure if that port was just to provide a charging port for a USBC device, or if I could plug in my laptop adapter, which would then get power from the HUB (as their diagram suggests), giving me back 1 of the 2 available TB4/USBC ports on the laptop?
PD is supposed to mean that you plug the laptop power brick into the adapter and the cable from the adapter into the laptop. I have adapters from Anker that have PD and it work fine with a Mac and a Dell.
I did connect 2 external monitor to the hub (1 VGA+1 HDMI port) but only got mirrored images. Assuming the answer above is a yes I can save one of my USBC ports, could I assume I would then be able to connect a different display to the remaining USBC port and add 1 monitor that way?
If it mirroring then I'd assume you need to fix display settings to have dual screens.

Thank you.
